So what you are saying here, is reps are afraid of the dems, because the reps have god-like powers.

Well if they believe that, it would be a reasonable fear.

Ketamine

I was in hospital and had some significant pain. Opiate based pain relief doesn't really effect me so they said we will try a ketamine. I said ok, I had never had it before....wow dissociative drugs, are not for me. I told the nurse to stop it and had a small argument about it with her as I felt myself become distant and spacey.

I decided that the pain was better then the loosing my mind feeling, stuck with paracetamol.

When I was a teen walking home from a party at around 2am, I saw a car reverse out of a driveway and slam into a car. The dude drive off in a hurry.

Checked on the driver of the second car, he was fine, but the car was messed up.

We called the cops and waited, after an hour, called again only to discover that they "were already at the scene".

Turns out that the dude had another crash a few hundred metres down the road.

Honestly just eat vegetables and keep your ultraprocessed foods to a minimum.

Milk and eggs are pretty good, as they literally have all that a growing body needs. But since I assume you are not a baby posting on social media (never can tell in this "modern" world) you need more than just milk and eggs.

Eat fermented foods, kimchi, sauerkraut or kombucha etc...great for gut health

I do like some nutritional yeast though. It is really tasty.

will Trump’s strange behavior hurt him at the polls?

You would hope so.

The hose can be sneaky though. See, you think you are finished, you relax a bit more drops out... Now you are really done, you wipe the last little bit. Good to go.

But fuck you, no, sometimes there is a bit half way up that didn't come out, you get to the door and now the last bit let's go. Now you are uncomfortable and a little embarrassed.

Does it happen every time, no, but it is an ever present option...

That is also how I originally read it.

My initial thoughts were, how this one achieve this crazy expensive feat.

Feeding 100 cats until they are all obese, along with housing and vet bills...

In the wild I've seen kiwi, kea, Kākā. I took a trip to mana island in the late 90's, the kiwi were just wandering around during the day.....

I've never seen the takahē.

True.

I haven't looked at one since I was a kid.

I know they do, tallest/fastest/biggest etc... But they are all things that always exist.

E.g. the biggest pizza in the world, well before that there was also a biggest pizza it was just smaller than the current one, and before that etc....

I guess anything with a single record, not just the latest in a long string should count.

I read John Ringo when I was younger (early 20's); it has a lot of what you are looking for.

I wouldn't call it high art, but the writing is fairly good.
